What they say
Michelin Selected
Michelin
Eighteen rooms and suites sit among date palms and bougainvillea, white walls and parquet floors keeping things grounded while the suites open directly onto the beach.
Somewhere quiet
Away from the crowds. Getting around takes intention.
Gölköy occupies the calm, pine-fringed side of the bay, far quieter than the celebrity scene of neighboring Türkbükü.
The rooms
Seaside Suites step right onto the shore, where natural timber framing and garden terraces create cool, shaded retreats.
The pool
Bring a swimsuit.
The outdoor pool sits amid the garden palms, flanked by cushioned white loungers and whitewashed stone cottages.
Flamm Restaurant
Tables spread across the timber deck and onto the sand, serving daily meze and stone-oven pizzas beside the water.
Flamm Bar
The timber bar pavilion sits on the lawn, serving house-infused drinks and fresh market tonics beside sea-facing daybeds.
